Exhibition


About the Program

The objects in Garry Ross' Animate Objects are easy to dismiss. They are old and for the most part obsolete. By changing the context in which the object is seen, the former use is nullified and it takes on a transformed meaning. Ross subtly alters these elements by transforming the mechanical into a pastoral where they become like a river or a mountain, and the contemplation of which brings forth a multiplicity of meanings which speak to the metaphysical.
